The Sign


Fifty years ago, the Lund university student music orchestra Bleckhornen was born in the laundry room of our apartment house in Lund. (If one would like to trust what was being said to us today, the reason for this odd rehearsal place was that noone else wanted to let them practice in their house...) To commemorate their initial home ground, and to honor the sign on the wall of the house (which reads "Bleckhornen was born here in 1956") the music orchestra today played a tribute concert for the house (while polishing the sign fervently)! Some of them seemed genuinely honored to be able to meet with some of us who live on this sacred ground.
